Sultry Holiday Makeup Look

Happy Holidays! I love the deep and fun shades of holiday makeup. While playing around the other day, I decided to do a holiday makeup tutorial. I know most use glitters and sparkle with their holiday looks but I decided to take a deep, seductive, and sultry spin on the holiday looks. Tell me what you think.


Check out the Youtube tutorial to see how I achieved this eye look. :)

Holiday Party Outfit Ideas

Hi Everyone! Since I won't have time to post any What I Wore posts this week. (because it is my finals week) I've decided to create a set for holiday party outfit ideas. With the holiday season well underway I know many of us are trying to decide what to wear. I love this time of year because everything is so "glam."

I put together three different outfits all of which include great colors and trends for the holiday season. Each look features a clutch and a statement piece.

1. The first look is cream collared dress with pearl accents. I decided that because the collar is such a statement there is no need for a statement necklace. I also kept the look soft and feminine by adding a mint colored belt, soft toned arm candy, and a soft shiny peep toe.

2. Look two is bold and sophisticated. This is the look I would most likely wear. The sweetheart neckline and bodice accentuate and add curves. If you have a slender figure like myself these silhouettes are most flattering. I accessorized with a golden plate belt and large statement necklace. I kept the arm candy pretty simple with this look and added a simple black suede pump.

3. The the third look, is glitz and glam. This look is the most "wintery". Once again the peplum silhouette adds and accentuates curves. The color of this dress is also bold without being gaudy. The shoes and accessories in this look add the glitz. The sparkling pumps are my favorite.


Let me know which of these looks are your favorite. Which would you most likely wear? 

Until next time_xo

What I Wore: Leopard Smoking Flats

Hi Everyone!

As you know animal print has made a major come back. You can find it just about anywhere. Personally, I first felt a little intimidated by this trend. I've never really been a big fan of animal print and in my own opinion if not done right it can come off a bit gaudy.

The trick is to keep it simple and limit it to one statement piece in your outfit. You can do this by choosing a belt, a scarf, shoes etc. I find that this approach usually makes the outfit appear more classic, than "cheap."


So, for my outfit on this day. I kept it very causal as I was only going to be attending a long day of classes and subjecting my self to hours in the library. My staple piece would be the leopard print smoking flats. I love these shoes because they are absolutely comfy and can be casual or a tad dressy if you like.


Since this outfit was causal I decided to just put on a pair of my favorite denim. To make this outfit a little more chic I paired a black collard chiffon top with a grey cardigan. Then I opted for my chunky gold chain. I love this chain because its still a bit feminine. This will definitely be a "go to" piece for me for a while.

Let me know how you style animal print. More photos can be found on my Instagram: goodelovee

Sneak Peak: New Haul Video

Hey guys! So this will be my very first haul video post coming up soon on my YouTube Channel. Thought I would give a sneak peak and post a few pictures of the new items I bought.


I almost never spend money on accessories. Mainly because I lose earrings and break things so often. I'm clearly very clumsy haha. So I purchased some things from Forever 21 because their accessories are VERY low priced and I won't feel bad when I lose or break them. I also purchased a new Blazer from H&M.

My most exciting purchase were two pair for shoes that I purchased from Bakers. They are going out of business in my area so I got a really good deal on some super cute sneaker wedges.


Look out for my Video Haul which will be up on Youtube in a few days. (I've misplaced my camera cord) lol.  There are also pictures posted on my Instagram: goodelovee
